Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. A clear, copper-colored beer with a small, off-white head. Caramel on the nose, some fruityness and not much else. Roasted, coffee-like hints though. The flavor is pretty much the same, roasted malts leaning towards coffee, as well as fruityness and caramel. Not much bitterness detected. Medium body. Caramel finish with roasted malts. A bitter that failed to impress me in any way. 110318
